wtf what kind of gym is that...that looks mighty dangerous to have people trying to throw a massive log up in the air with all that other equipment and people near by..accident waiting to happen
@jmyjms86 that's dereks log from what teh info says but id why he has it there lol 0.0 but maybe he asked to stored it there and they put it up when hes not there to use it my guess but idk :)
I can't believe they let you have that in the gym!
the guy who runs the gym I go to would flip if he saw someone with one of those. lol! very impressive though! can't wait to see you or Travis win WSM 09!
it will take quite a long time for him to break the log record.The world record is held by zydrunas savickas that is 207kg/455.4 pounds.haha lol this is only 400 pounds!! but i have a lot of confident that derek can beat the record.But Mariusz Is The Best i mean for now..
Yes, it was only 400 pounds after wearing out his shoulders and arms already with 11 reps at 310, one rep at 360, and one at 380. Which it says in Information at the upper right. 400 only looked hard because he was already tired. Had he been fresh, I'm sure he could have gotten in the 430-440 range. So, he's a lot closer than you think to that world record.
It's actually 210 kg (462 lbs) set by savickas in lithuania last year, and not many are going to be able to come close to that for a while. Benedict Magnusson is one to watch though!
@biglewys2 yeah and now he just broke it again at 212.5 kg (468 lbs.) nov. 21 i think right after he won the worlds strongest man 2009.....he did it easily by the way....no one is gonna come close to that
way to grind it out!!!

@Gooseman2k2 263kg in the current 105+ SHW class, 266kg all time excluding class restructuring. And that's Olympic lifting, not power lifting.
And no, Poundstone could not do that.
